Good.... I would rather see it closed than see people seriously hurt by sonic attacks.

I was looking at the statistics for this office on the USCIS website and just looking at I130s, there doesn't appear to be any work going on there, so I am not surprised that it was closed.

It does appear to be linked to issues affecting the Embassy as a whole.  I have not seen anything on this for some time.  Hush Hush

 

U.S. Embassy visa services in Havana have been almost entirely suspended since November 2017 due to a drawdown in staffing as a result of attacks affecting the health of U.S. Embassy Havana employees. The U.S. Department of State and USCIS continue to explore options to resume consular and other immigration services in alternate locations. USCIS will inform individuals of alternate filing or processing instructions that are established.
